It’s almost time for the second annual Adoption at the

the films that succeeded at being entertaining while also portraying adoption
positively. We want you to help choose the winners! On Thursday, February 12
Adoption at the Movies will be sending e-mail ballots to every Adoption at the
Movies e-mail subscriber. If you’ve already subscribed, just sit tight, and the
ballots will show up. Want to vote, but haven’t subscribed yet? Sign up now as
